Hi!
I tried to make IMQ work for the past week, but i keep getting a lot of trouble
with it. First the latency is growing from 0.1ms to 1.5ms and second the CPU
usage is very high and is not very stable, sometimes, after a day,
there''s a lot of packet loss. I''m using the latest stable
kernel 2.6.9 with latest imq patch. Is there any other alternative to IMQ for
limiting inbound and outbound traffic?
Will CLASSIFY from iptables work for both upload and download?
I want to separate local traffic from internet traffic, so can I create two
classes, like this
| 1:1 |
| 1:10 | | 1:20 |
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 10.1.1.0/24 -j CLASSIFY --set-class 1:10
(let''s say for local traffic)
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -j CLASSIFY --set-class 1:20
now all local traffic will be in class 1:10 and internet traffic in class 1:20
and i will make another class inside 1:10 for every ip in lan.
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:1 classid 1:10 htb rate 100mbps
tc class add dev eth0 parent 1:10 classid 1:100 htb rate 1000kbit ceil 1000kbit
quantum 2000
tc qdisc add dev eth0 parent 1:100 handle 100: sfq perturb 10
tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:10 protocol ip prio 1 u32 match ip dst 10.1.1.1
flowid 1:100
Will this work? Also if i change -s with -d will it work for upload?
PS: If i compile IMQ as a module after adding more than a few rules in iptables
with -j IMQ --to-dev 0 i cannot ping any host. It is working for let''s
say 50-100, i don''t know, but if i put more than 500 it dies. If i
compile it in kernel it is working with more than 500 but i get packet loss
after a while of using it..
